Revision to Standard:
Options (page 53): Points will be allocated based on percentage of construction waste (by weight or volume) that is diverted from landfills through recycling or reuse. Soil, land-clearing debris, and hazardous waste are not to be included in these calculations. For multiple projects within scope, the percentage is based upon the cumulative sum of the solid waste materials across all of the projects.
Documentation Requirements:
Documentation must include all retrofit, renovation and new construction projects performed within five years of the preliminary review submission that exceeded $100,000 in total cost. If no project that exceeded $100,000 in total cost was performed in the last five years, the most recent retrofit, renovation or new construction project with a total cost exceeding $500,000 may be considered for this measure.
Summary log of all construction waste generated including tonnage or volume, type of waste, and disposal methods, along with the names of the haulers and recyclers:
-
Include all waste materials for all projects that are applicable for this measure
-
Tabulate all waste materials, including both the recycled and disposed materials and percentages of total
Invoices from haulers and recycling firms that support the details in the summary log regarding handling of waste.
MEASURE A11: REGIONAL MATERIALS FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION, REHABILITATION OR RETROFIT
Revision to Standard:
Options [Note] (page 56): If information on the weight of materials used in the project is unavailable, project cost may be used as alternative for calculating percentages. When calculating the overall percentage of multiple projects toward one certification, either weight or cost must be used for all projects. Weight and cost cannot be intermingled.
Documentation Requirements:
Documentation must include all retrofit, renovation and new construction projects performed within five years of the preliminary review submission that exceeded $100,000 in total cost. If no project that exceeded $100,000 in total cost was performed in the last five years, the most recent retrofit, renovation or new construction project with a total cost exceeding $500,000 may be considered for this measure.
Invoices of all materials used across all applicable projects.
Table summarizing all materials used including:
-
Item description
-
Place of manufacturing origin
-
Weight (or cost, if weight unavailable)
-
Totals of the products sourced regionally versus outside of region along with percentages of total
Contractor's schedule of values.
MEASURE A12: REGIONAL LABOR FOR NEW CONSTRUCTION, REHABILITATION OR RETROFIT
Revision to Standard:
Options (page 57): If the labor is provided by contractors and sub-contractors, apply the calculations based upon the locations of each contractor and subcontractor and the project hours that each contractor/subcontractor contributed to the project.
Options (page 58): Points will be allocated based on percentage of project labor hours using local labor or local contractors. For multiple projects within scope, the percentage of labor is based on the cumulative sum of the local labor employed across all of the projects.
Points are awarded based on the percentage of labor performed by local labor and/or contractors compared to the total project(s) hours.
Options [3 points] (page 58): At least 60 percent of project labor hours performed by regional labor/contractors.
Options [1 point] (page 58): At least 35 percent but less than 60 percent of project labor hours performed by regional labor/contractors.
Documentation Requirements:
Documentation must include all retrofit, renovation and new construction projects performed within five years of the preliminary review submission that exceeded $100,000 in total cost. If no project that exceeded $100,000 in total cost was performed in the last five years, the most recent retrofit, renovation or new construction project with a total cost exceeding $500,000 may be considered for this measure.

MEASURE A13: REUSED, REPURPOSED OR RECYCLED MATERIALS
Revision to Standard:
Options [Note] (page 60): If information on the weight of materials used in the project is unavailable, project cost may be used as alternative for calculating percentages. When calculating the overall percentage of multiple projects toward one certification, either weight or cost must be used for all projects. Weight and cost cannot be intermingled.
